Time is the most important thing we've been given.

Astro-Tarot – October, 2017

“We must be willing to let go of the life we’ve planned, so as to have the life that is waiting for us.” ~ Joseph Campbell

General – For All Signs

As October begins, with so much Libra energy in the air, maintaining balance in your life will come with greater ease. You will be able to juggle your personal, work, and home priorities, perhaps even find the time to engage in activity which will benefit your health, all while keeping your focus on your hopes and dreams. It appears to be no small feat, for what you are creating is for the long haul; do not rush it, for you will find an incredible opportunity awaits you between the Full and New Moons.

This month, you are tackling whatever barriers remain between you and what you have been longing for in your life. You are securing a better position for yourself against all struggles, and the mind shall have the clarity to achieve the desires of the heart. At the time of the Full Moon, do not allow your fears to stand in the way of your journey; release them, and dare to embrace the changes which await.

Around the third week of the month, you will achieve a major coup when it comes to manifestation. The pain and heartache of recent years will be dead and buried, as you close that door and take back your power. Your future is calling you, and it is cozy, secure and inviting. You will feel as though the Universe finally passed you the keys to begin unlocking the doors which have failed to open for you in the past.

Fairy godmothers, magic lamps with genies, whatever myth or deity you choose, you will feel the light coming in and the warmth and compassion of the Universe bestowed upon you. You are free to go now; perhaps it does not seem real and you still fear the Universe will take back all those keys. It will not. Forget about what was, and focus toward what is coming. Never take for granted what you have; for now, you have driven the major challenges away. You have recovered and it is time to see what lies behind door number one.

♈️ Aries – March 21 – April 19

Aries, it is time to take charge of your life! Your fears about the future should begin to dissipate around the Full Moon in your sign on the 5th. Structure, at times, may seem too confining and rigid to you, but building solid relationships can lead to bigger and better things. Focus toward the new memories you can make and know that you can not win them all, but there will be commitments worth treasuring and keeping. Make your goal to surround yourself with the right people to help you meet any challenges which come your way.

♉️ Taurus – April 20 – May 20

This is a month of immense change for you, Taurus. If there has been a picture in your mind of how life should be, and you can’t seem to break into that picture, rather feeling like you have been on the outside looking in, then you are going to choose to move on from it. The hard times of recent years have challenged your goals, but, this month, the doors finally start opening. You will need to make a choice in direction somewhere around the 10th of the month; luck turns in your favor and the Universe bestows upon you that which would make you happy. Do not allow the past to get in your way; be ready to go for it at a moment’s notice.

♊️ Gemini – May 21 – June 20

Gemini, conceivably, October is probably the biggest month to strive for some balance in your life. Whether it has been all work and no play, or vice versa, the Universe prompts you to take time out to smell the roses. Learn to balance the fun and the hard work, and maintain a generous and compassionate demeanor, if you wish to overcome any difficulties you have been facing. Remain grounded, for, by the time the Sun is leaving Libra, and moreso when you have entered November, you will feel as though you are back in the saddle again, and the balance you are seeking will have found you.

♋️ Cancer – June 21 – July 27

There appears to be a great deal at stake this month, Cancer. Change, as daunting as it may seem to you, is inevitable, and will ultimately provide you with the means to create the life for which you have been secretly wishing. Do not let your fears stand in the way of your hopes and dreams. This is a time of creation, and you are the one doing the creating. Put your head down and simply power through to victory; you will still be able to nurture those you love from this new vantage point which is coming.

♌️ Leo – July 23 – August 22

Leo, the time has come to achieve balance over the hard times. A visit with the realities of cause and effect will help you determine what types of changes would be in your best interest at this time. Your hopes and dreams sail straight ahead in October, and you may feel, no matter how heavy the load, that you are racing to the Finish Line. Tears of joy may consume you at some point, as you encounter the possibility of manifesting some true, down-to-earth security for yourself. You are finally seeing things in a different light, and freeing yourself from outdated ways of being. New beginnings are on the horizon.

♍️ Virgo – August 23 – September 22

You are going to clean house in October, Virgo. Not your literal house, but the issues of your life which have been holding you up, you shall be tackling with a vengeance. Biting your tongue may be in your best interest, as you work in a behind-the-scenes fashion to achieve your victory. Don’t let the cat out of the bag, and you will definitely come out on top, just in time for the New Moon on the 19th. Hopes and dreams here you come; do not allow any disappointments over what was just lost to weigh you down. Shift your focus to what you do have and begin to look at life from a totally new perspective.

♎️ Libra – September 23 – October 22

Libra, this is indeed your month. Any relationships attached to hard times you have experienced are coming to an end. It is time for you to close the door. Perhaps it has taken you a while due to a desire to achieve balance, but you have learned valuable lessons and will have the clarity to cut yourself loose from any union which does not serve your best interest. There is not a great deal of time to be spent mourning the loss; you have so much work to do, choices to be made, and roads to be traveled.

♏️ Scorpio – October 23 – November 21

October feels much like a tempest in a teapot, Scorpio, but in a good way. You creatively find a way to make things happen, and life feels like it goes from zero to 60 in an instant. You are striking a balance in your favor at the time of the Full Moon on the 5th, and by the time the Sun is entering your sign, you are celebrating the elimination of the hard times. You may find yourself sitting and pondering how achieving your heart’s desire could have been so painful, but you are finally setting yoursel free. The time has arrived to take back your life and move on to the next adventure.

♐️ Sagittarius – November 22 – December 21

Sagittarius, cue a little SNAP, ‘I’ve Got the Power’, as the month of October begins! You are bursting with creativity in the first three weeks, and will surely hit your mark, with a little help from the Univese. Do your best to rein in your impulses and stay even keeled, using the Libra energy available to you. Do not overextend yourself, for, by the time the Sun enters Scorpio, you may very well crash and burn.

♑️ Capricorn – December 22 – January 19

Do not allow your doubts and fears to get in the way of your hopes and dreams, Capricorn. If you have a day where you feel as though you have been through the wringer, then pick yourself up, dust yourself off, and go reclaim your power. Patience may be required with solutions for the changes you seek, but you are winning in the long run. Do not let idle gossip infuriate you, or put you in the middle of a heated argument. Look past the smokescreen, and the deceptive masks everyone wears. Do your part, and do your job to the best of your ability. Do not engage in the fight, and continue to hold your head high and bite your tongue.

♒️ Aquarius – January 20 – February 18

Aquarius, if something did not work out, forget about it. So much more awaits you, and it is possible to achieve a new beginning in more than one area of your life. Think of it all as your karmic due, as you see good luck come rolling in your direction. Appreciate the divine timing of the Universe, and its system of checks and balances. You are making an important decision toward your goals, which is playing out between the Full Moon and the New Moon. You will feel more at peace by the end of October, as you manage to put an issue to rest, once and for all.

♓️ Pisces – February 19 – March 20

Keep on doing what you are doing, Pisces. The Universe recognizes your hard work and care which has been expended toward your goals. The stars align in your favor this month, allowing your wishes to win out over the hard times. Between the Full Moon and the New Moon, you are closing a very heavy door. This is fate knocking, telling you it is time for the next great adventure. This is a very powerful, energetic time for you; do your best to remain grounded and keep all important projects in your life on your radar.
